| | | | | Let $latex \mathrm{PA}$ be Peano Arithmetic. Gödel's Second Incompleteness Theorem says that no consistent theory $latex T$ extending $latex \mathrm{PA}$ can prove its own consistency. (I'll write $latex \mathrm{Con}(T)$ for the statement asserting $latex T$'s consistency; more on this later.) In particular, $latex \mathrm{PA} + \mathrm{Con}(\mathrm{PA})$ is stronger than $latex \mathrm{PA}$. But certainly, given that... | |
